Jayden leaves the elevator and heads to DrRetro's lab, to no one's surprise, there's no one there and Jayden just moves on.

[4 Left.]

Only 4 encounters. Not enough EXP to reach LV 12. That's fine though. Jayden still kills them and takes what they can get before heading into a restaurant.

"Oh god. Not another one."

→ Buy

Jayden buys all the remaining good healing items until they're out of stock and decides to try and sell something instead.


"Ew. Like I want your blood covered shit."

→ Talk
"Fine. If it gets you to leave."
→ Name

"Emerson. Next question."
→ Job

"Cashier. Next question."
→ Threaten

"...You're bluffing. I know you are. You can't hurt me. Literally."
→ Leave

"Finally."

Jayden heads straight to Prototype and saves there before heading in.

"...You're here."

...

"I wish I didn't have to do this, I truly do. But I just can't let what you did slide. This has a big impact on not just me, but everyone."

Jayden takes a step forward

"Still at it, huh? Heh. Well, we've tried to knock you down in our own ways, the closest anyone got was Mach and now she's..."
Prototype cocks their arm as if it wear a gun and aims it at Jayden before shooting a laser at them.

"You're not a PLAYER anymore. What you are is a monster."

You know the drill.

Jayden swings at prototype, dealing 952 Damage. In retaliation, Prototype shoots at them, energy beams and lasers. Jayden swings and swings at Prototype, landing almost every hit, occasionally missing or getting blocked with Prototype retaliating in some way with their own attacks, it seemed basic until.

"Wait. I need a breather. I'm sure you do too..."


They were right, Jayden needed to take a breath and heal up.

Which is exactly what they do while Prototype sends a message to someone, "Ready? Good."

Suddenly, a platform appears and the floor under Jayden lights up. Quickly they hop onto the platform and a bed of spikes appears under them.

"Surprise! Like 'em? They were designed this way for our little show here. Oh and by the way, I may or may not have laced them with something so...Try not to fall."

[BLUE tiles are slippery, however, picking up speed on them will allow you to cross large gaps.]

[Hitting the spikes will give you the PSN effect, which will slowly deplete your HP by 2 until it hits 5 or under, or 3 turns have passed.]

Jayden slips and slides and jumps from platform to platform, the turn lasting for quite a while until Jayden gets annoyed and...

They use their, "TRICK STRIKE" move they learned with Wallter to knock Prototype in the head with the hammer, 1,254 Damage. The spikes go back down and Jayden lands another blow, dealing 1,222 Damage this time.

"ALRIGHT THEN! Seems like we're playing DIRTY! That's F I N E by me!"

[Self Destruct Mode: ACTIVE]

[Self Destruct in T-Minus 45...44...43...42...41...]

Jayden quickly starts panicking and thinking as the attack goes, hearing the timer go down.

35. 34. 33.

They have to think quickly, they can't die but that means they'll have to do this ALL over again!

26. 25. 24. 23. 22.

Their HP is just enough to use TRICK STRIKE again and survive but if they attack they'll just run the risk of activating another turn if they don't hit a critical strike.

16. 15. 14. 13.

But if they don't and let Prototype explode, they'll die and have to do this all again.

7. 6. 5.

SCREW IT! They run up to prototype AND.

3. 2.

SMASH THEM IN THE STOMACH WITH THE HAMMER!

...

999 Damage is dealt.

And that's it. Prototype falls to the ground and...

[You Won. You earned 2500 Exp and 3000 Coins]

Jayden sighs a breath of relief as they move on to the next elevator.

Decimation Route
